How the Economical Housewife Can Make
Them Available In Many Ways.
A thrifty housewife finds many uses
for the best parts of worn or outgrown
garments Sometimes they can be fitted
up Tor q younger child, or the best part
Of the calico or gingham, IL not worth
making into dresses, may be used for
aprons or bibs. Worsted dresses often
make over into comfortable petticoats,
II not good enough for making up again
into dress. A pretty little wrapper
for children's morning wear or for sick
days can be made out of a wooden dress
that has been outgrown, and will afford
solid comfort to the little wearer.
Many mothers like to economic in
these ways, and think more of such
little garments into which they have
woven 30 many thoughts while con-
irving them, than the brand new dress
cut by pattern out Of whole cloth.
Some managing mstrons keep a large
basket expressly for old garments, cut
ting Cd the buttons, ripping out the
best pieces, rolling them up and put
ting them into it for further use. The
parts that are too worn or too tender
make good carpet rags, and can be cut
and pieced during the winter evenings
o. In the early twilight Of the spring
months. Underwear. either cotton or
wooden. can be made into smaller
undershirts. or wrappers, or stockings.

SWORDS AND sAYONETS.

The Severe Test to Which Those Intended
for the German Army Are Subjected.
The following information respecting
the manufacture and testing of the
weapons supplied to the German army
reaches me from high authority. AS
general rule all the army swords, sa-
bers and bsyonets are made in Govern
ment factories. When, however, large
numbers are required in hurry, con-
tracts are entered into with great man
ufacturers at Solingen and elsewhere.
In these cases special provision is made
in each contract, enabling Government
experts and scientific officers to enter
the factories at all times in order to re-
port upon the quality of the material
and workmanship employed in carry.
ing out the Government orders. Every
weapon, whether manufactured by state
or private industry, is tested before il
receives the Government stamp, which
is only intrusted to army officers, each
one OF whom is held personally respon-
sible for the proper testing of the weap-
Ons impressed by his stamp. With re-
spect to swords and sabers the testing
process is the following: The blades
are brought in unmounted. examined
for length and thickness, then bent ac-
cording to certain fixed rules; two heavy
right and left cuts are then struck at a
wooden block with the edge, and two
blows with the fat of each blade. Hav-
ing passed these tests the blades are
stamped and laid aside to be mounted
and finished. When mounted they are
again tested for solidity of connection
between blade and hilt- The testing of
bayonets is equally severe and exhaust
i've. No inferior material or defective
workmanship escapes the cognizance of
the inspecting officers, who are special
ly chosen by the Ministry of War for
their knowledge of all the physical and
technical details connected with the
material and fabrication of steel weap-
ons.
The rejected blades and bayonets are
generally sold by the manufacturers to
retail firms or to Governments which do
not adopt precautionary measures for
inspecting arms. Most of these weapons
are sent abroad. The swords, etc., man.
ufactured in German Government shops
are paid for slnglY to each workman on
delivery, after having been tested and
found perfect. Those rejected are not
paid for. This system compels the
workmen to be careful, and results in
the production of very high percent
age of faultless weapons. Ineed scarce
ly add that none are passed which, to
the minutest detail, do not fulfil the re-
quirements of the Government stand

Billy Kissane turns up next as the
hero in a romance. He was engaged,
under his own name of Rogers to be
married to a charming Kentucky
belle. When the feast was ready, and
many guests had arrived, a letter was
handed to the bride apparent, in
which she was informed that the cere-
mony must unavoidably be postponed.
The news of the burning ofthe Martha
Washington at the same time came to
the hands of the young lady's father,
and the announcement that Billy, his
prospective son-in-law, was wanted for
iHcendiarism. The young lady was
likely for a while to die of grief, but
she changed her mind and married q
prominent statesman of the North
west. The parsons have q facetious
sort of consolation that they keep In
stock to mitigate sorrow withal, shout
losses being blessings in disguise.

Gus story about frogs myself. A
summer or two ago, a handsome young
lady from Chicago spent month
with my sister on my fathers farm
near st. Louis. One night, at lawn
party, she lost one of her slippers. A
few weeks after she returned to Chi
cago, my little brother Tom found
the slipper on the bank of brook
that runs across corne. Of the lawn.
He stopped to pick i ~, hvt found
he could not move II. tic called Two

though they tugged at the slipper for
half an hour, thew CO., vt move it

fine draft horses. These tnyy hitched
to the slipper, intending to have them
draw it away from the brook. They
failed. The slipper maintained its
position as if it were fastened to the
ground with spike clinched in the
middle of the earth. They then ex-
amined the slipper, and were amazed
to find it full of frogs. will not
hazard a statement as to the number
of frogs that had made their home in
the slipper, but telegraphic dispatches
from every point in radius of 100
miles declared that all the frogs had
mysteriously disappeared from their
accustomed haunts."
"a very curious story very prettily
told" said Chicago drummer. at
reminds me of an incident | witness
ed last summer. A handsome young
lady from st. Louis was visiting my
sister on fathers farm near Chicago.
On the farm there was large pond
called in poetic language the watery
home of the merry frogs 1t was ten
acres square and it contained several
billions of frogs. l was walking on
the bank of the pond with the hand
some young lady from St. Louis, one
day, feeling very cool and comforta-
bic in the shade cast by her feet. In
a moment of playful excitement, she
accidentally dropped one of her feet
into the pond. Great spoons, the re-
suit was amazing! Every drop of
water few out of the pond, and, with
it all of the frogs. No trace of the
water was ever seen again, but
the next day telegraphic dispatches
from all parts of the United States,

it was raining frogs by the bushel."
